Career Development

Career Development

As the world of work continually changes, so too do individuals’ careers and the pressures on organisations to attract and retain talent. Helping employees to explore the alignment between their career objectives and the opportunities afforded by their organisation can enhance engagement, commitment and discretionary effort.

With more than 23 years of experience in careers, we are well positioned to assist you to align your organisation’s and employee’s goals to the mutual benefit of all.

How we can help

We offer a range of individual and group career development programs designed to clarify individuals’ career goals, assist them to identify and pursue desired career opportunities, and provide them with the skills needed to craft meaningful and fulfilling careers.

The increasing rate of change and complexity in the marketplace has meant that the role of an executive is becoming exponentially more difficult. Trevor-Roberts recognises that traditional methods of executive development are no longer fit-for- purpose.

What our customers say

“Due to an impending relocation, Trevor-Roberts was commissioned to assist team members who face redundancies to reassess and move forward with job searches. In a total of 4 group sessions, [Coach] has managed to empower and incentivise a disparate, emotional and uncertain group of people (blue and white collar). [Coach's] thorough knowledge of the Job and Careers market, her superior presentation skills, positive outlook and integrity has turned a negative situation into a positive. She has demystified the process of self-marketing, job hunting, preparation and presenting for an interview. More than simply assisting in the process of careers transition, [Coach] has succeeded in building self-esteem, and placing direction and control back into the hands of people who had felt they had lost these.”
